1. 24/7 study zones

2. Course reserves

From textbooks and course packs to CDs and class notes, course material in print and digital formats can be checked out for anywhere from a few hours to a few days. A great cost-saving feature for anyone on a tight budget.

3. Laptops and iPads

Keen to try out a tablet? Forgot your laptop at home? No problem: you can take out one of 300 laptops on a one-day loan or one of 125 iPads on a three-day loan.

4. Chat with a librarian

Enjoy the luxury of chatting with a librarian from the comfort of your own home — or couch, for that matter. You can also email, call and speak to a reference librarian in person, if you wish, or zone in on one of Concordia’s subject librarians who specialize in particular academic fields. They will happily answer your questions and guide your targeted research projects.

5. Skills workshops

Looking to improve your academic performance? From term-paper planning to reference sourcing, Research Skills Workshops ensure you consistently make the most of your library experience.

6. Technology sandbox

Learn by doing, making, playing and sharing your knowledge in a community-oriented space. Visit LB-211 and LB-204 at the Webster Library where you can experiment with 3D printers, virtual headsets, a digital die cutter and 360-degree video cameras, as well as create a cat selfie machine and much more. The sandbox also offers workshops on a variety of related topics on both campuses.
